Question 242117
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


A golden rectangle has a length to width proportion of *[tex \Large \frac{1\ +\ \sqrt{5}}{2}\ :\ 1] or approximately *[tex \Large 1.618\ :\ 1].  The only thing about a tennis court that is even close is the service box which is 13.5 feet by 21 feet -- and that misses a golden rectangle by nearly a foot.  13.5 feet by 21.848 feet is what it would have to be.
